It won't be like Beaumont, mother. I promise. 

(aggrivated) It's nothing like that, Esme, I just don't think love is a crime. 

(nervous, explaining her past to Maude) It happened just the once: we were alone in the dormitory and... she asked me if I'd ever thought about kissing another girl. I said, 'well... yes'. I'd always wondered what it was like but it was nothing more than that. She asked me if I'd like to try. I was scared and I had this horrible feeling in my tummy but I was also excited. When she leant over and pressed her lips against mine I felt like... like this was me. I'd finally found my real self. All the nerves and anxiety just escaped my system and I was flying! But, it was as she leant in for another kiss that the door swang open and I knew we were doomed.
